High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery novel Chapter 473

Chapter 473: Chapter 455: Not So Simple

"President, it’s me. Do you have a moment?"

As soon as the call connected, Shen Si’s voice rang out.

There was an unprecedented gravity in his tone.

"I have time. What’s the matter?" Shi Tao smiled slightly and asked.

"There is some bad news."

Shen Si let out a bitter laugh.

"Bad news?"

Shi Tao’s expression momentarily froze before he asked, "What bad news? Just go ahead and tell me."

"Um, President, you..."

Shen Si hesitated briefly and then said, "Is Ling Yu with you right now? This matter is quite sensitive. It’s best if only you know about it."

"?"

Hearing this, Shi Tao glanced at the baffled Ling Yu beside him and couldn’t help but ask, "Is that really necessary?"

Everyone knew that his relationship with Ling Yu was like that of a father and son. He even considered Ling Yu his successor and didn’t usually keep secrets from him, even important ones.

"Yes."

Shen Si replied without hesitation.

That previous incident, whether Ling Yu had intentionally or unintentionally incited Xiao Hong, was leaked out by him.

Therefore, it was certain that there was some conflict between him and Chen Fan.

If Ling Yu knew this news and deliberately spread it later, not only Chen Fan but even he would be in danger.

Of course, Ling Yu might not be such an inconsiderate person, but wouldn’t it be better to kill off any such possibility in the cradle?

"Alright."

Shi Tao said, then looked at Ling Yu and said, "Xiaoyu, you should go out and cultivate for a while. If anything comes up, I’ll call you."

Ling Yu was stunned and showed an extremely surprised expression on his face.

But in the next second, he obediently nodded and said, "Yes, Master."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.

After closing the door, he furrowed his brows tightly.

What could be so important that Master would send him away? It never used to be like this.

Right, could it be Shen Si’s idea?

"Yes, that has to be it."

A trace of gloom flashed through Ling Yu’s eyes.

This Shen Si, what a troublesome person. He deliberately had Master send him away, making it seem like he wanted to eavesdrop.

He sneered and after a moment of hesitation, pressed one ear against the door.

Not let him listen?

He was determined to listen!

So what if Master caught him?

Master cherished him so much, how could he bear to blame him?

Besides, Master had just broken through to the Celestial Human Realm. He was in great spirits and surely wouldn’t take it out on him.

This minor movement naturally couldn’t be hidden from Shi Tao inside.

It was hard to make a guess.

"President, this person’s surname is Chen."

"Chen Fan!"

Shi Tao exclaimed, his eyes showing an incredulous look.

Upon hearing about the Feng Country People’s misdeeds, his heart was burning with rage. When he heard Shen Si’s hint, he completely forgot that someone was outside eavesdropping.

"Chen Fan?"

Outside, Ling Yu’s eyes widened sharply.

No wonder, no wonder that guy Shen Si had insisted on kicking him out and not letting him listen. It turned out this matter was related to that guy with the surname Chen?

"That guy Chen!"

Ling Yu clenched his fists, his heart burning with jealousy.

Nowadays, in the association, Chen Fan’s reputation was big as well. After all, he was also a True Essence Realm Martial Artist and even younger than him. Hence, many people at headquarters were secretly saying that the association’s top talent was not Ling Yu, but rather Chen Fan.

After all, one was at the headquarters and the other at a branch. The treatments they received were different, and for Chen Fan to achieve such feats spoke volumes about his talent.

Maybe, the second person to step into the Celestial Human Realm after the President wouldn’t be Ling Yu, but Chen Fan.

Every time he heard these remarks, Ling Yu wished he could smash the heads of the people who said them into their stomachs!

How could a mere bumpkin from a small city be compared to him, the golden boy from a big city? How dare they even mention them in the same breath? Outrageous!

Moreover, thinking about the previous incident, he wished he could hack that guy surnamed Chen into a thousand pieces.

With this thought, he focused even more on trying to hear what his Master was saying.

However, strangely enough, it was abnormally silent in the room at this moment, with no sound at all.
